9 ‘Therefore justice is far from us, nor does righteousness overtake us; we look for light, but there is darkness! For brightness, but we walk in blackness!
10 ‘We grope for the wall like the blind, and we grope as if we had no eyes; we stumble at noonday as at twilight; we are as dead men in desolate places.
11 ‘We all growl like bears, and moan sadly like doves; we look for justice, but there is none; for salvation, but it is far from us.
12 ‘For our transgressions are multiplied before You, and our sins testify against us; for our transgressions are with us, and as for our iniquities, we know them:
13 ‘In transgressing and lying against the LORD, and departing from our God, speaking oppression and revolt, conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood.
14 ‘Justice is turned back, and righteousness stands afar off; for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter.
15 ‘So truth fails, and he who departs from evil makes himself a prey. Then the LORD saw it, and it displeased Him that there was no justice.’
